So I like the grid I can manipulate for each content type for role based access settings, but it confuses me a bit.

Drupal's built in node access permissions page let you manage permissions for:
create, edit own, edit any, delete own, delete any

Content Access lets you manage permissions for:
view own, view any, edit own, edit any, delete own, delete any

It seems that the only benefit this page for Content Access is that it allows you to restrict who can view nodes of a specific content type. That's great, but why doesn't it allow me a grid for "create" permissions as well? I have to go back and use the main permissions page for that.

Am I missing something here?

This issue has not received any updates (except metadata changes by me) in the previous 9 years. I don't see the point of having the overview page even more cluttered.
